Family of 9

Though we haven't been very active on the blog lately, we have not been sitting still! Trips to buy groceries. Trips to church. Trips to the doctor. Trips to the library. A trip to Kenwood Mall to make Eleanor happy--red bean milk tea (they even have a menu in Chinese)! And last week, we finally made it to Jungle Jim's International Market. We are so grateful to have this right around the corner. Both kids were able to find some things they recognized and are enjoying very much.

We've also been working on getting the kids outside for sunshine and exercise. Having one who lived in an orphanage and one living in a very populated city, I don't think either of the kids were used to spending time outside for recreation. If you happened to drive by, you might find us outside bumping a volleyball or shooting baskets. We also love to sit on the porch swing. 

With school in full swing, relaxing on the porch doesn't come as often now. We're inside hammering our flashcards, copying English words, and playing ESL games on the computer. 

Your prayers are still very much appreciated as we navigate this busy life. Each of us has different things we are working through, and are grateful for the Lord teaching us through them.
